I loved everything about this Safari!! Our safari guide Damit was the nicest and most experienced driver who managed finding two leopards only 20 minutes after entering the national park. Also he knew everything about the animals and made this a unique experience. Thank you so much!

Very friendly and motivated tour guide, it was obvious that he had a lot of experience. He does the tours since 2006. He was always looking around and saw animals when we needed 2 mins to find them after we stopped and he explained us where to find them. He was always in contact with other guides to find all the rare animals. There was a certain hierarchy among the guides and he was on top of all. Our truck always had priority on the road and the spots with the animals. We had an amazing safari and we’re incredibly lucky to see many elephants, 3 leopards and even 2 bears!! We talked to other people who did the same tour with another guide and they didn’t even see half of it. Of course you always need luck but such a good driver like this multiplies the chances to find the special animals immensely!!

The safari was amazing. We saw three leopards and many other animals, such as monkeys, croccodiles, elephants, buffalos and antilopes. The pick up was very early (4.45 am), but it was definetly worth it because we were the second jeep for the entrance in the park. The driver is really nice and patient. We sure reccommend them to book a safari!

We did the half day safari in Yala National Park. We were picked up at 5 am with a nice safari jeep and were at the park in time (park opens at 6 am). In the park we saw three leopards, four elephants, many crocodiles and buffalos, some pigs and monkeys and many different birds. We spotted the leopards in the beginning of the trip and went for the other animals afterwards. It was quite hot that day so many animals were hard to find. The driver was very well connected to other drivers and tried very hard to find the animals. Also he was very good at spotting animals we didn't see.

We went on a half day, and then a full day with Janaka. He has a great eye for spotting wildlife, finding two leopards when on our own, which gave us a unique experience all to ourselves. He was also great at spotting/identifying birds for those more interested in the nature other than just the big game. Arrived on time and prices were reasonable. I would highly recommend.

We saw leopard in the first hour! You have to start early for that, but it's worth it. Next there was a breakfast at a scenic place. First half of the day was spent driving around and animal watching - elephants, deer, birds, all in front of drinking nature. And she enough we saw a best after the lunch! The guide had good spoken English and is knowledgeable about animals, be sure to ask questions.

We did a half day afternoon safari with Nakala.
He was a very nice Guide, who knows a lot about the animals. I would recommend Specials hin because he die really well communication with other guides, so we were always one of the first jeeps, when a animal appears.
Leopards, Elephants and the Krokodil were our favorites.

Best Safari Guide. Very organized, good communication and most important: the guide has 16+ years of experience and is still enthusiastic to find the animals and show the park. We could not have wished for a better guide! Thank you!

We had an awesome full day private safari with Darshana. We got far more than we could imagine - all kind of wild animals and foremost a Leopard crossing the street right in front of us. Contact and making our appointment was super easy - if you look for a great tour with one of the best drivers you’ll find it right here

We had a great time in Yala National Park with Janaka. He is very experienced guide and enthusiastic about the wildlife in the park. We saw so many animals and furthermore he brought us some delicious food his wife prepared.
I only can recommend doing a tour with Yala Osha Safari!

Dear Yala Osha Safari,
I read some recommendations about the safari with Janaka and want to ask, if there is a half day safari available at the 30th of July. I also want to aks about the prices for the trip and I read about an accommodation. Is it the Janaka Safari Homestay?
I'm looking forward for your answer!
Many Greetings
